What do you guys think?

[AndieCat]

Hey guys. I am back. Haha. As you all might remember, almost 4 weeks ago, Andie was in the hospital for 2 days with an apparent gastroenteritis. She has been doing pretty well since she got home. I am still nervous, but she doesnt seem to be sick. About 2 weeks ago, she threw up her dinner within minutes after eating. But 3 days later, I began switching her to Innova dry and Wellness canned at night. I did it gradually. She seemed to do fine. She only seems to like the Turkey/Salmon flavor though of the canned. Anyways, last night, she was REALLY HUNGRY. She was bugging me to eat about an hour earlier than usual. So, I fed her a bt earlier than I normally do. She ate it all up, and abotu 5 minutes later, I saw her lower her head and start with the stomach contractions and she heaved about 4 times and then up came her dinner. She did it again about 5 mins later. She seemed fine after. And then a few minutes later, she ate the fresh supply of dry food that I have out for her to munch on throughout the night.
I got worried, but Andie has been known to vomit/regurgitate after eating before. I looked up some stuff online about vomiting and regurgitating. Apparently regurgitating is when it comes up from the esophagus and within minutes after eating. This seems to be what happens. However, one site said regurgiating is usually fairly easy. The animal lowers its head and the food comes up easily. Vomiting includes an apprehennsive animal and stomach muscle contractions.
What should I think? It's been 2 weeks since she did this last. She wanted to eat afterwards, and didnt seem sick or uncomfortable. All the sites say cats vomit more easily and frequently than any other animal. One site said it can be normal for a cat to vomit at least once weekly. More than once is a problem.
I wonder if Andie is regurgitating b/c of a hairball or just eating too fast... or is this something I should worry about? I just wonder how much vomit is too much!?
Sorry for the rambling!

I think if she scarfed up the food really quickly, and then had to throw it up, its probably nothing to worry about - simply eating too much too quickly. Especially if she's been known to do it in the past.

As long as she continues acting fine, and eating normally with no other vomiting, I think she's fine. Just keep an eye on her (like you would do any differently!) and if you notice her vomiting more frequently, a call to the vet wouldn't be out of line.

If she's eating too fast you can try a couple tricks: put a couple clean golf balls or ping pong balls in the food dish. She has to nudge them aside to get at the food and that slows her down. Or you can spread out the food on a tray. Another thing to do is to elevate the food dish four or five inches off the ground. Combine those two tricks and that should help the food stay down.
